Hi everyone,
Does this mean make someone lose themselves? So he made her lose herself? (because she fell in love with him?)
It's a scene where this man accuses his friend of flirting with his sister.
أختي يا أحمد؟ كنتُ أعرف أنّك راودتها عن نفسها منذ أوّل يوم لها في المدرسة، سرقتها كما فعل والدك بالمزرعة
Thank you.
